I watch a lot of your videos on my smart TV but your opinion of being tall doesn't fit the scooter, I'm 6foot 6inches tall and I'm 250lbs. I've had my 125 BWs Yamaha since 2015 and I have no problem with my knees and I've gone 29,000 kilometers on it. My Yamaha is air cooled and I changed the tires to road tires that last longer. I do get good gas mileage and I can go 55 mph. I wish you would stop saying you're too tall when you ride a Honda Ruckus as well.
I bought a 2022 Zuma 125 (BWS 125 here in Canada) as my first intro to scooters after 40 years of riding various bikes and I absolutely loved zipping around town on that thing. Fun and very practical for city riding, however I needed something that could take me down the highway, so after owning a Honda PCX150 for a year, I've settled on a 2016 Honda Forza 300...still not quite checking all the boxes, but until Yamaha offers colours other than 'Henry Ford Black' on the Xmax 300, it's Honda with it's azz backward horn and turn indicator arrangement for me.
Over 6ft barely but I sat on one and my knees were really close to the bars. I’m gonna look at the genuine hooligan. Supposedly better for taller riders.
Fun video man. I contemplated getting the Zuma before I bought my Super Cub. Think knows, maybe I'll add one to the stable one day. Thanks for sharing.
I sat on one and drove it had no problems over 6 foot tall. It’s a great bike ! I highly recommend it for anyone!

That's actually a 2023 Zuma, in 2024 they're either matte black or grey.
Perfect scooter ❤zuma 125 off-road scooter trip nature

As a South African, I really despise the name Zuma given to the scooter.

I bought a 2023 Honda Navi last February over this one. Upgrading to a 2024 Burgman 400 next month & I cannot wait !
In Canada, it comes in a desert tan for 2024, too.
Does the dash have backlight?
Nice scooter, good review it'll get me downtown and to the local parks.
Like your Rukus, this is a country road light gravel scooter. In your area, it really has it's place.😊

Really contemplating between this and adv 160, different aspects of both I like over the other
That thing would make a pretty good little camping rig all set up.
The new look is starting to grow in me. Someday I might replace my ‘13.
😂 I wouldn’t say tough looking! I would say ruggedly cute looking! 😀
Great Video, how do you like it compared to your Honda Ruckus??
It would be better to have the fuel tank in the back top like the old one!
Chain or belt?
